All I need to do is find my own path to happiness. I have all the ingredients I need: a family, amazing friends, a job I love. The only thing that has been holding me back all this time is me. I haven’t let myself be happy. I didn’t think I was allowed to be happy if I was fat or if my husband left me or if I was alone. But all those people who say that happiness is a choice are One Hundred Percent Correct. I’ve just been choosing against it.
